A recent court decision allows FTX to sell $3.6 billion in cryptocurrencies, causing the market to go down.

The sale of these cryptocurrencies will start with weekly blocks of $50 million and will gradually increase to $100 million. However, there are stricter rules for selling tokens associated with insiders. For these tokens, FTX must give a 10-day notice to both creditors and the US Trustee before selling them.

Additionally, FTX intends to get involved in cryptocurrency hedging contracts. They will begin by concentrating on Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Impact on Solana and Other Alternative Cryptocurrencies

FTX’s significant ownership of Solana has likely caused a 4% drop in SOL’s price, bringing it down to $18.50 in the past week. FTX holds almost 16% of all circulating Solana tokens. To reduce the immediate impact on the market, FTX plans to release only $9.2 million worth of Solana tokens each month during the liquidation process.

While FTX and Alameda Research jointly own $353 million in Bitcoin, which makes up around 1% of Bitcoin’s weekly trading volume (a relatively small portion for Bitcoin), it’s their holdings in less commonly traded tokens like Dogecoin (DOGE), TRON, and Polygon (MATIC) that raise concerns. These assets, valued between $20 to $30 million each, represent a significant portion of the weekly trading volumes for these cryptocurrencies, ranging from 6% to 12%.

How the Crypto Market Responded to FTX News

When the news was announced, Bitcoin saw a small decrease in value, losing 0.9%. Ethereum also dropped by 1%, and Solana experienced a more significant decline, losing 2.2% of its value.

However, some of this impact was already expected because of news earlier in the week.
